Thanks for the suggestion Nitin. I can see the "Change Security Groups" option for my instance (when looking at the EC2 console), but it's greyed out. The only option I have on the EMR console for the instance is "Terminate Job".
Is your "Change Security Groups" option enabled? If so, any idea what steps you took in creating the instance to enable it?

Simple enough to create a rule - but is there anyway to associate a rule with an instance either when the instance is running, or at creation time using the AWS Management Console? Or can it only be done using the commandline client or by an http request?

Here is a website explaining how to set up port forwarding in putty (use port 9999): http://www.cs.uu.nl/technical/services/ssh/putty/puttyfw.html You can edit either hive-default or hive-site but the general practice is to store changes from the default configuration in hive-site.

We'll be accessing the HWI from Windows rather Linux desktops, so can you help me out with understanding how to carry out the port forwarding from a Windows environment? Currently I use WinSCP to initiate a connection to the EMR instance, then spawn a PuTTY session. The changes to the hive config look identical to what I've changed in my hive-default.xml. Does it make any difference which config file the changesare applied to (hive-default.xml vs hive-site.xml)?

When you connect to the master node using ssh you should use a command like the following: ssh -i /path/to/keyfile.pem -L 9999:localhost:9999 -l hadoop MASTER_HOSTNAME After you have connected, add the following to your hive/conf/hive-site.xml file: <property> <name>hive.hwi.war.file</name> <value>lib/hive-hwi-0.8.1.war</value> <description>This is the WAR file with the jsp content for Hive Web Interface</description> </property> Run this command to start up hwi: hive --service hwi And finally point your browser to: localhost:9999 That worked for me.

I've hit a blocker early on though, and the documentation is less than illuminating. Can you share any experiences you have had? Specifically, here's what I'm curious about. - Running on AWS. I've created a Hive job flow on AWS, edited hive-default.xml (in /home/hadoop/.versions/hive-0.8.1/conf) and changed the hive.hwi.war.file to lib/hive-hwi-0.8.1.war. - HWI starts up fine, but when I try to connect with http://ip-XX-AAA-BBB-CCC.eu-west-1.compute.internal:9999/hwi, I get a timeout message, in Firefox it's "The connection has timed out - The server at ec2-54-247-61-206.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com<http://ec2-54-247-61-206.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com> is taking too long to respond". Has anyone successfully connected to HWI running on an AWS EMR instance? From the same browser I can connect to HWI on a local Ubuntu box. Thanks!
